SOOO BIG!
My Babies are getting so big. My infant is no longer my tiny one. But he sure does have the Wilson Scowl. What a sweet boy!

Well we are finally settling in and figuring out how to work things with 2 kids. Going out is still a chore but we're doing well. Pierson is sleeping through the night from about 11pm - 7or8am. He cluster feeds in the evening and is a great sleeper. He hardly cries anymore except when getting lotioned, bathed, changed or naked. Other wise a very happy baby, smiling and cooing like a champ. Averie has gotten over most of her tantrum issues (coerced by mini marshmallow bribes). She is such a good helper and can even pick Pierson up by herself (kind of) and helps with so much. She can calm him down as good as I can and better than even Dad. She is getting to really love school and has a new best friend Izzy (or Isadora). Finally another girl to play with. Her parents are both actors and her dad in the film program. She wants to play with her everyday after school. She is going to bed much better now as well and has turned her every response from NO to K. Averie named her dolls the funniest names in the world, but they sure are cute. She got Jillabryce for Christmas and BaJessa for her birthday. She keeps herself busy much more now playing pretend preschool, bossing the kids around and she talks non stop all day long. Gotta love it.
Bryce is getting a little more used to the idea that he may not end up with having the best job in the world as that seems to be the way the cookie might crumble. But he's still trucking on and won't be defeated. He works his tail off for good grades, which don't really matter when finding a job, but he's determined to learn and retain all in his classes.
As for me I'm on a mission to remind myself that I have nothing more important to be doing right now in life than being a mom, my email, naps, TV, face book, and blog can wait. My kids can't and it's been the real learning lesson right now. I think that nursing a baby teaches a mother patience in general as you give hours of your day to a baby just sitting on your can while they nurse away. I am almost done reading the Book of Mormon for the first time ever (shh don't tell)and have set a goal to replace my afternoon escape with The Day's of our Lives to reading the Ensign which I have never done. I'm not making any promises, but It's a goal and I'll reach it someday. Bryce and I are both free from a calling and enjoying it for the time. It's nice to go to Gospel Doctrine again and Relief Society, that is when I'm not in the mothers room.
Still no knowledge of where life will take us in the next 4 month, but Faith and Long suffering will only tell. I just hope it's not here in the stinky city. I told Bryce I would stay if I have to but I get at least a free month of crying and whining about it. We miss everybody and are excited to go on a Graduation vacation!!!!!
Don't Miss the Slide show below with some new pictures and some of the birth and Christmas!
